Summary: Defending Digital Democracy develops solutions to share threat information with technology providers, governments and political organizations. It also provides election administrators, election infrastructure providers, and campaign organizations with practical “playbooks” to improve their cybersecurity. Other activities include develoing strategies for how democracies can credibly deter hostile actors from engaging in cyber and information operations, assessing emerging technologies that may improve the integrity of systems and processes vital to elections and democracy and Convening civic, technology, and media leaders to develop best practices that can shield public discourse from adversarial information operations.
